News must travel fast. I hope they do a good job making more great games from the DKC and Mario Kart franchises. Congrats to the lucky bunnies that got the job.

Probably really cracking down on their next Wii U game which is exciting. That, or just didn't have anyone else to do these jobs so they're filling in the gaps while they slowly work on a new game.
